Looked After Call User Roles

In order to log in to Looked After Call you will require a user account. To manage who can access the different areas of the system and keep the children's data secure, each user has a role assigned to them. This means some users can carry out some tasks that others cannot.

List of User Roles

The currently available user roles are;

Designated Teacher
Social Worker
LA User
LA Super User

Roles should be assigned as closely as possible according to the job function of the person to whom the account relates.

For example;

a teacher in a school who is responsible for the Looked After Children in their school should have the role "Designated Teacher".
- A member of the school office staff who may also need to access the system would also have this role as it is the closest one available.
a member of staff that works for the Virtual School as either a Social Worker or Social Care Worker should have the role "Social Worker"
- This would also apply to managers in the virtual school.

More roles will become available in future as the system is developed.
